History

Historical Context

During the 1987 Stanley Cup Finals, Edmonton coach Glen Sather shifted from starter Grant Fuhr to backup Andy Moog after Fuhr posted a 3.44 goals-against average in the first 12 playoff games. The move helped the Oilers capture their fourth Cup in five years, with Fuhr setting an NHL record 16 playoff wins. The swap illustrates the franchise’s long-standing reliance on goaltending adjustments.
